When I bought my car the guy said the throttle body that is on it now sticks (it does..bad), so he threw in a new one with it. He said it was just a B-series throttle body but I'm not sure what it came from. For some reason I think it might be from a b16 off a civic si?

I need to find out so I can get the right gasket for it. I've tried like 3 different ones but none of them fit.

 

obd2...
type r? b16?

what be the size cuz

 

its obd0, I see the fitv arm on the throttle body. Measure the opening to see how big it is.

 

The opening is pretty small. Its like 5mm smaller than my B18B tb. Would this fit on my manifold? Or should I just get one off ebay or somethin?

 

Did you take that with you when you went to get the gaskets?

 

Nope this was after I tried like 3 different gaskets.

 

Well look at the rivets on the Tps Sensor.. Its unscrewable meaning you would have to cut the rivet screws in order to adjust the Tps. My guess is that its likely an older model from a single cam of some sort. Check D series gaskets.. The B series throttle bodies especially from a vtec motor will have a Philips screw holding the TPS so that you can loosen it and adjust it..

 

That has nothing to do with D vs B-series, that's a JDM vs USDM thing. JDM engines used screws (they're not philips though, torx IIRC)
